What got into Leeds last night?!
It was a top night at Headingley. Leeds were ferocious in defence without giving away daft penalties and sin binnings (thats happened so often this season). Wigan’s try scoring threats were mainly nullified and they didn’t quite have the power in the pack that has enabled other top teams to steamroller Leeds.What got into Leeds last night?!

Leeds took the majority of their chances and usually average players forces”d their way over the line, like Smith and Mustapha. Wigan let Leeds get up the pitch by conceding pens and the Rhinos made the chances count (in the main).
Leeds had lots of opportunities and Rhys Martyns kicked away when a try seemed certain and Liam Moore failed to award what seemed a certain Leeds try with 20 mins to go.
For the first time in a few years, the Rhinos fans created a raucous atmosphere that seemed to lift the team.
That’s what every game of rugby should be like. The amount of strolls in the park with teams going through the motions is ridiculous in this league these days. Wire have been the worst culprits this season. I think that’s why Powell is fucking all the pack off, sick of them taking games like they’re a tickling competition defensively.What got into Leeds last night?!
